Call all free: Feel Tom-skype

Recently surprised to hear many IM manufacturers to catch VoIP Express, have played a "clear voice" signs, as for that product best, in fact, said so much is useless, we can only try to know.

When the best friends arrive in New Zealand and start a few years of study abroad, our contact basic depends on the network, first of all we want to use the latest 2005ⅱ version of QQ phone, but did not expect to call the delay usually reached more than 10 seconds, a few 10 seconds long, it is unbearable, the most annoying is this "official version" Each start, there will be the last chat incomplete records sent to make people inexplicable. Then try the famous MSN, the effect of voice phone and listen to the radio station, most of the time is noisy, almost unusable. I really do not know how MSN gathered so many popular ...

for IM upstart Skype I feel very awe, after all, they use the world's most advanced voice technology, very fire abroad. Since my friends and I have been worried about the complexity of the operation, need to charge something, so has not dared to "wild", until I heard that domestic Tom online agent Skype, and completely free to use, just remember to try, but the use of found, it's language chat effect is very good, a little echo is not, basically is 0 delay , I really regret not having used such a good voice tool earlier.

The Chinese version of the Tom-skype interface is very stylish and lovely, reminiscent of the green Tom site, are a young fashion style. with other IM software a lot of audio and video animation game features, Skype's main feature is the ability to penetrate any firewall of the Super voice technology, can guarantee the same sound quality with the phone, and Skype is very focused on voice technology, other video features such as "additional", This is not like other IM software, voice technology is only its additional function. Skype, by contrast, is a natural voice, and is also the first to implement PC to phone and PC to PC communication. I think it's a big thing to focus on--although other IM software claims to have the same voice effect as the phone, it's only Skype that really implements this "theory."

Another good thing about Skype is file transfer, which can be fast and stable without limiting file size transfer files. I send foreign students hundreds of trillion compressed file is also very stable, basically a few 10 minutes can pass, and with other IM software is basically transmission failure, can only rely on e-mail contact, there is a lot of Skype really convenient. In fact, NetEase bubble in the file transfer is very good, but compared to Skype, bubble also want to lesser.

At present the domestic tom-skype development speed is very fast, the side uses the Skype friend already to have many, its new version release speed Super swift and violent, less than two month time updated four times, has added many functions, more and more conforms to the Chinese usage habit, the original weak text chat function has been greatly strengthened, Let people feel Skype super strong technical strength. Skype also has an outstanding function to impress me, it is particularly convenient for bloggers in the domestic blog to use, before seems to have rarely seen the "Skype Me" icon, but in many foreign bloggers have this icon on the website, Easy to read blog people with the blogger himself in private contact, can be a text message, or direct call (as long as his Skype is open). This is a good way to society networking. Use this aspect to facilitate peer-to-peer communication between bloggers, rather than the broadcast of a one-to-many information release.

I personally think that Skype's excellent capabilities are not only a good instant messaging tool, but also a potential personal knowledge management tool because:

(1) have real-time voice text communication and knowledge sharing:

On Skype's buddy list, you can add a blogger's Skype account on your blog to invite people to discuss it, and it can be held in real time with almost no delay between several people of the same interest. In this way, it is possible to complete the "netcasting problem" which has not been well solved in the knowledge management.

(2) PC to Phone feature improves personal productivity:

If you can add Plug-ins to your Outlook contacts, Outlook's dial-up functionality will be fully leveraged. For example, when you open a contact person's information, it records the contact's cell phone, business phone, and home phone. Outlook provides dial-up functionality to dial the phone number directly in the record, but this dial-up is now only done over the phone line and is not realistic for the LAN environment of the current office. If you can go out via Skype, the effect is the same as calling a regular phone. This saves a lot of time dialing repeatedly and reduces the likelihood of error. And Skype retains the time of the call, the call object and other information, to facilitate the recording work.

(3) File transfer and sharing:

People from different groups around the world can carry out the transmission of knowledge data through the function of file sharing. For example, a blogger in his blog to introduce a book, another person read his blog was very interested. Through Skype, he found the blogger and asked to share the ebook. But the ebook has a size of 50M. The use of MSN words is basically difficult. But Skype can easily solve the problem, they also entered the other side of the Society network.

All in all, from the perspective of knowledge management, Skype provides the ability to facilitate the real-time exchange of knowledge and

Sharing, to improve the efficiency of individuals, and record the workflow, is a very potential knowledge management tool. Skype's application will not only be limited to the domestic traditional IM software "leisure entertainment" function, but beyond QQ and MSN to become the best business personal assistant. Because Skype's operations abroad are already quite mature, it is especially suitable for companies with foreign business to use, not only convenient but also save high telephone charges.

I personally like the Skype software, and I love the convenience of it through hands-on experience. Hope that more friends to download a try to share the fun of Skype free talk.
